Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

This might be a dumber move than the guy facing domestic violence charges calling in from the same house as the defendant.

On one hand, yes this was terribly stupid.

One the other, I understand why people are forced to drive under desperate circumstances to get to work, doctors appointments, etc. because public transit in most places is so bad it’s worthless.

Yeah, that was a dumb move but it shows how unreasonable driving alternatives are. People have to drive in the US

I mean, couldn't he at least park? Who'd attend a court hearing while driving anyway?
